What is Markdown?

Markdown does not officially support video embeddings but you can embed raw HTML in it. I tested out with GitHub Pages and it works flawlessly. Go to the Video page on YouTube and click on the Share Button. A Youtube video rendered in a Slide, in a Slideas presentation. Being able to simply add a Youtube Video (or from another similar video platform like Vimeo) in a slide is a must-have. Unfortunately, it is more difficult than we can think. There is no official good way to embed a Youtube Video in a Markdown document. Existing workarounds. YouTube, the premier platform for watching and sharing videos on the internet, is a well-loved part of our culture today, and has been making innovations to the online video player since its.

Markdown is a way to style text on the web. You control the display of the document; formatting words as bold or italic, adding images, and creating lists are just a few of the things we can do with Markdown. Mostly, Markdown is just regular text with a few non-alphabetic characters thrown in, like # or *.

You can use Markdown most places around GitHub:

• Comments in Issues and Pull Requests
• Files with the .md or .markdown extension

For more information, see “Writing on GitHub” in the GitHub Help.

GitHub Flavored Markdown

GitHub.com uses its own version of the Markdown syntax that provides an additional set of useful features, many of which make it easier to work with content on GitHub.com.

Note that some features of GitHub Flavored Markdown are only available in the descriptions and comments of Issues and Pull Requests. These include @mentions as well as references to SHA-1 hashes, Issues, and Pull Requests. Task Lists are also available in Gist comments and in Gist Markdown files.

Syntax highlighting

Here’s an example of how you can use syntax highlighting with GitHub Flavored Markdown:

You can also simply indent your code by four spaces:

Here’s an example of Python code without syntax highlighting:

Task Lists

If you include a task list in the first comment of an Issue, you will get a handy progress indicator in your issue list. It also works in Pull Requests!

Tables

You can create tables by assembling a list of words and dividing them with hyphens - (for the first row), and then separating each column with a pipe |:

Would become:

SHA references

Any reference to a commit’s SHA-1 hash will be automatically converted into a link to that commit on GitHub.

Issue references within a repository

Any number that refers to an Issue or Pull Request will be automatically converted into a link.

Username @mentions

Typing an @ symbol, followed by a username, will notify that person to come and view the comment. This is called an “@mention”, because you’re mentioning the individual. You can also @mention teams within an organization.

Automatic linking for URLs

Any URL (like http://www.github.com/) will be automatically converted into a clickable link.

Strikethrough

Any word wrapped with two tildes (like ~~this~~) will appear crossed out.

Emoji

GitHub supports emoji!

I usually struggle to remember all the parameters for inserting links and especially images to the markdown which is the default format for GitHub, GitLab comments and documentation files and for this blog as well. Moreover, neither GitHub nor GitLab supports inserting videos.

One of the workarounds for this issue with videos is to insert an image of for the video wrapped in a link pointing to the video location. For markdown files images are inserted in the following way:

Markdown Add Youtube Video

whereas we use the following markup to insert links

So, combining these two markups allows us inserting image with link to the markdown

Good! Now we know how to have clickable images in our markdown which will redirect us to some link. But how can we do the same trick with youtube video?

Inserting youtube clickable image to markdown

Let’s try to do the same thing with Audi R8 youtube video.

First, we need to grab an image from the video. Hopefully there is and API to do that. You will need vide id which is alphanumeric sequence in the urls v parameter. In the example above it is KOxbO0EI4MA. The link to image will be

For Audi R8 video the image is going to be

Great! We have just created a clickable image that can be inserted in the markdown and used in GitHub or GitLab comments. So, now you can praise awesome commits with funny cat videos.

Automatic Conversion

Remembering the markdown specifics to create clickable images is quite hard. So there is a web tool that’s doing that automatically. Navigate to the embedyoutube. You will see

Just put there your youtube link, alt text and title for the image and you will get the markdown that is ready to be pasted to the Git comment or markdown. Evernote spen.

To conclude, we learned how we can embed youtube links into markdown files and GitHub and GitLab comments using image and link markup, also we learned how to do it automatically using embedyoutube.org
